I am due for knee
joint
replacement
surgery. Can anyone relate their experience with stopping and starting Apixaban before and after the operation. I also take Ramipril, will I need to stop this for a while?. Thanks

First post.
First
joint
replacement
at 58 followed by another two. I quite enjoyed the Concept rower and realised how useful it was to keep ligaments etc strong. I then got the other two bit of equipment, Bikeerg and Skierg. Got the Concept 2 app and joined in all the challenges etc.

Happy New Year
Leg muscles are still stiff but supporting ‘dodgy’ knees although not apparently bad enough to justify
joint
replacement
which I am wary of anyway so, just going to see how next few months go as I am definitely better than I was a year ago. Hope that you are all improving too Marion

I am new!
Hello! I’m a 57 year old woman who wants to lose weight and be healthy. I had lost 40 pounds over the past three years and hoped to lose another 15-20. Recently I put 7 back on and feel myself slipping back into old, bad habits. I have severe arthritis and have had several joint replacements. At times

Intro
Hi. I've been on HealthUnlocked for some time now and for some reason, my profile states I've not introduced myself. I've written a bio within my profile which summarises my journey with sJIA. I've had systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis for over fifty years and early on had periods of remission

Over 50
I have been struggling withy weight for years. I started putting on weight when I started depression medication. Now I'm over 50 still battling obesity. Growing up I was very active,but that has decreased due arthritis and joint replacements. I'm starting a new year looking for support from others.

bisoprolol
Has anyone else needed a
joint
replacement
? And if so how did you manage pain with any existing meds. I’ve tried diclofenac but after a week it was undermining my bisoprolol and my bp was increasing. Tnx

Sacroiliac joint fusion
After many painful years I'm on the NHS list for sacroiliac joint fusion. Of course there is a 12 month waiting list. Has any one had this operation done privately? Struggling to find a private consultant in Yorkshire.

post hip op
has anyone had a hip replacement and been far worse afterwards. Sooo depressed. Not sleeping. In constant pain. 50 times worse. Original pain but with many more in different areas. I’m sure the physio did me some harm. Anyone else had this.
